After visiting several basic accommodations for backpackers, me and a new friend of mine found Crystal Lodge and it was love at the first look. Crystal Lodge is a special and magic place. If you are looking for a 5 star hotel, please do not go. But if you are looking for something different, cosy and relaxing, that is the... More

After arriving late in the night checked into the lodge, the website doesn't show you that it's a long walk down past residential slums to the end where the lodge is. Very dirty and smelly. On arriving paid 2 night, got to the cottage which was advertised as having cooker, fan, water, shower, hammock, hardly any of this was supplied.... More

In the past, Filipinos live near the sea as fish and rice are their staple. This lodge resemble the kind of living they have in the past. Just add a little ladder down to the sea and reach your boat and paddle and you are ready to hunt lunch. Crystal Lodge is manage by a very lively and pretty local... More

Fantastic friendly staff. Krystal and her family will treat you like a friend of the family even you only stay for a couple of days. It's a great alternative to Sea Dive and it's worth spending the extra pesos if you are looking for a calm place with lots of charm. The structure is quiet unique. All cottages are build... More

Our neighbour got bitten in his back by a rat while he was sleeping! And it was quite a hassle to get away from the island because there were no sufficient medical treatments available. Besides the bathroom was very smelly. There is a kind of slum next to Crystal Lodge. Shocking views.

Very pleasent two nights stay at Krystal lodge. I could recommend this to anyone who wants to stay in Coron town but still appreciates privacy and a good night sleep. Very nice and helpful staff made us feel very welcome. Thank you Krystal!

I stayed at Krystal Lodge for almost a week and was very pleased. It was raining most days that I was in Coron but luckily Krystals lodge is full of cool little nooks and garden decorated rooms where you can comfortably lay in a hammock or lounge area and read or play on your wifi device.
